Chapter 37: Can You Do It Without Even Writing?

Even the results of the calculations were directly solved.

"Is this... an upgrade again?"

After checking the system interface, Xu You found that his learning experience value had not reached the requirement for an upgrade.

However, his mental and physical strength had unknowingly changed.

[Mental Strength: 86→90↑]

[Physical Strength: 58→66↑]

Comparing the data values before and after, Xu You's mental and physical strength had both increased slightly.

"I didn't expect mental strength could naturally improve as well!" Xu You exclaimed.

He could understand the improvement in his physical strength quite well.

The persistence in exercising over these days had indeed had a certain effect.

As for mental strength, Xu You thought.

In a more efficient state of deep learning, it should also be possible to slightly increase mental strength through brain exercise.

It wasn't necessarily required to upgrade the system to improve mental strength in a short period of time.

It was precisely because Xu You's mental strength reached a certain threshold.

That allowed Xu You to enter a higher realm in the state of deep learning.

Thinking about these issues, Xu You didn't notice the change in Hu Zheng's expression.

From Hu Zheng's perspective, the other fourteen students in the classroom were all writing the process with pens attentively.

Only Xu You had been staring at the problem for about ten minutes, without writing a single word.

Hu Zheng knew that with everyone's current level, it was not easy to solve the problem completely within 30 minutes.

But at least one should try.

Indeed, Hu Zheng also admitted that among these children, Xu You was already one of the strongest.

But that didn't mean he could be so proud as to not even write.

Finally, Hu Zheng couldn't stand it any longer.

"Xu You, why aren't you writing?"

Asked by Hu Zheng, Xu You suddenly jumped out of the deep learning state.

"Teacher, I... I have already solved it."

After hesitating for a moment, Xu You decided to tell the truth.

Although saying this might make him seem somewhat arrogant.

But using other lies to prevaricate would be even worse.

It might lead the teacher to think that his attitude towards learning was not serious enough.

The students, who had been seriously solving problems, looked up at the conversation between Hu Zheng and Xu You.

Xu You had always been diligent and steady in their eyes.

Why was he suddenly confronting Teacher Hu today?

Hu Zheng's eyebrows furrowed upon hearing this.

Such a problem, even for himself, could not be solved without writing.

Had Xu You done this problem before?

Impossible, this was the latest internal mock test, not a past exam question.

Was Xu You bluffing him?

Thinking this, Hu Zheng said, "Then, Xu You, come up and write the process on the blackboard."

Hu Zheng absolutely didn't believe that Xu You could just look and solve the problem.

According to the standard answer, this problem required writing out 25 equations.

Of course, Hu Zheng didn't really want Xu You to come up and embarrass himself.

It was just a warning to Xu You not to be so proud in the future.

"Okay, Teacher."

Xu You, however, didn't hesitate at all and walked straight to the blackboard.

Picking up the chalk, he started writing on the blackboard.

At this moment, everyone else lost interest in their own problems.

Instead, they all looked up at Xu You to see if he could really solve the problem.

Most of them had only just started the first question.

Hu Zheng, realizing the class was veering off course, quickly intervened:

"Everyone focus on your own work, don't get distracted!"

Though he said this, Hu Zheng couldn't help but watch Xu You's problem-solving process.

At first, Hu Zheng thought Xu You was just bluffing his way through.

But gradually, Hu Zheng found.

Xu You was writing very fluently, hardly pausing at all.

And the entire solution process was without any issues.

Even if it was not entirely in line with the standard answer's approach.

It was definitely a correct solution.

"This kid... is really that good?"

As he watched, Hu Zheng's forehead began to sweat.

Even though he had coached many provincial teams, he had never seen a student like this.

A CPhO finals level question, apparently solved in a few minutes with a complete approach.

Confident enough to not even need to write.

Certainly, Hu Zheng was not a coach of the national team and hadn't encountered such top-level geniuses.

But even across the country, there are hardly a few people who could reach Xu You's level.

Thinking boldly, Xu You not only had the hope of entering the national training team but might even have a chance to make it to the official national team.

In the national training team, through layers of testing, the top 13 players are selected as official national team members.

Among them, ranks 

1-5 will represent Huaxia in the IPhO (International Physics Olympiad).

Ranks 6-13 will participate in the APhO (Asian Physics Olympiad).

Over the years, Hu Zheng had hardly led a few members to the national team, let alone official national team members.

If Xu You could really go that far, it would be the most outstanding student he had ever coached in his competitive teaching career.

As Hu Zheng envisioned all this.

Xu You had unknowingly filled the blackboard with content.

Although the other students were just asked by Hu Zheng to focus on their own work.

They couldn't help but glance at Xu You's process while working on their problems.

Although they didn't know if Xu You's solution was correct or could fully understand what Xu You wrote.

But looking at the full blackboard of content made it seem very impressive.

"At least the front part is correct."

Hu Shucheng compared what he had completed with Xu You's work.

Even if there were some minor differences in the process, the overall direction and the results of the calculations were correct.

At this moment, Hu Shucheng felt a sense of defeat again.

Initially, at the start of the provincial team training, the two were on the same level.

How had Xu You become so exceptional in just a few days?

Had Xu You done this problem before?

Impossible, Hu Shucheng had basically done all the real questions and practice books.

There was never a problem exactly the same as this one, at most some similarities.

Anyway, it's not like one could go through the entire process without even writing, right?

This problem had three major questions and eight sub-questions.

Even to solve it by writing, finishing in half an hour would already be a super high level.

At this time, Xu You had completely filled the blackboard.

But the process of this problem was still lacking the last bit.

Helplessly, Xu You asked Hu Zheng:

"Teacher, there's no more space. Can I erase a bit of the front?"
